Well fuck.
Im 50 soon.
I mean sure, I no longer have excitement for IT. Ive seen so many trends and ive seen us just spinning the wheels. We dont actually get anywhere. Things get more complex and it solves some problems and creates others.
When I was younger, I actually got excited about stuff in IT. So that has changed. But still, its possible to work and just have a ordinary job doing ordinary stuff. Dont need to get hired at Google. :)
you got any more of those ordinary jobs? scratches neck
Exactly the same for me. I already had leading roles in my last few jobs, but this year I switched to a job without any coding. I am just burnt out. I have seen too many languages, paradigms and frameworks over the years. I still write code and pick up new languages. But only for me. I can't handle dealing with code every day anymore. I am working at a co-op now, so there's no insane drive to make billionaires happy. And I really hope I can stay there until retirement.
Anon has destroyed their body digging for memes in the mines.
So, Jacob Gellar?
